Summary: In Seminary, Sam cultivated a love of knowledge and of God, in exactly that order. He was taught that vampires were real, that silver could take down a werewolf, and that belief could be a living, breathing thing. In Seminary, Dean learned how to fight. Most of all, Dean learned to have faith in his brother. They were both introduced to the true meaning of war. Now the war is finished and the church has disbanded their sect of elite warriors, leaving them to fend in an unfamiliar civilian society. They are ragtag refugees of a war everyone tries to forget. For Sam and Dean, however, the fight is far from over.
